When he was chosen for the show, Mike Thomas, a special education teacher at Cleveland Heights High School, couldn’t tell his family or employer where he was going or why. That silence has been lifted, but Thomas must remain mum about the winner.
Mike Thomas of Cleveland Heights is a contestant on PBS's The Great American Recipe which premiers June 19. CLEVELAND HEIGHTS, Ohio – Mike Thomas has been keeping a big secret since mid-June 2022. Because of show rules, he couldn’t tell anyone that he’s one of nine home cooks to appear on Season 2 of PBS’s “The Great American Recipe.”The show, which airs on Mondays starting June 19, was created to “celebrate the multiculturalism that makes American food so vibrant and unique.
He will reveal that his entries in the competition represent his Southern heritage and his life in Cleveland. They are shrimp and grits, and a Cleveland Polish boy. “When we had our holidays,” he says, “I was in the kitchen with them. Over time I was given different tasks. As I got older, I was able to do more. I absorbed everything from them.”
Of course, he tries to get his children – ages 2, 5 and 7 – in the kitchen to learn about cooking. “It’s a wonderful way to teach them how to be responsible, to do math and to have that relationship,” he says.
